I move an amendment to Senator Birmingham's motion in the following terms:

Omit all words after "That", substitute:

(a) the provisions of the Migration Amendment (Removal and Other Measures) Bill 2024 be referred immediately to the Legal and Constitutional Affairs Legislation Committee for inquiry and report by 13 May 2024; and

(b) for the purposes of the inquiry, the Senate directs the Committee to hold at least one public hearing of not less than 5 hours.

I seek leave to make a two-minute statement.
